Liu Bei gave Gao Ran and Ding Feng their task only to occupy Qianbei City and its surrounding villages and towns. However, Gao Ran found that Gongsun Du had no precautions against their sudden attack, and Gongsun Du himself had only just become the Taishou of Liaodong, and he was also an official who was bought with money, so he did not get the support of the locals. So Gao Ran and Ding Fengyi discussed and decided to take advantage of the other party's carelessness to take a few more cities.

Liu Bei received letters from Ding Feng and Gao Lan, as well as a large amount of gold, silver, and jewelry that they had seized after they captured Qianbei City. After reading the letter, Liu Bei hurriedly summoned Han Fei to discuss. Han Fei pondered for a moment and said, "Let Zhang Yi bring people over, the mountains of Liaodong are completely suitable for them to exert their strength." The Two Realms Mountains are sandwiched between the Plains and Nanpi, and they have no meaning at all in that place now! And let Mr. Simbi go with him! Gao Ding and the two are both military generals, and someone must govern the city after it is laid. ”

Liu Bei couldn't stop nodding when he heard Han Fei's words, and then he was embarrassed again: "George is gone, and the marching Sima here will have to rely on Zicong to do it for him!" There are still too few talents, and there are not enough people anywhere! ”

"Don't worry, lord! There is a great talent in Jizhou, and his talent is a hundred times that of me, but it is good for the lord to invite him personally! Han Fei shook his fan and smiled.

"Oh! Who is this person? Zicong said quickly, I should personally invite him out of the mountain! Liu Bei was overjoyed when he heard this.

"This person's name is Tian Feng, the word Yuan Hao. He is a native of Bohai County. Tian Feng has been smart since he was a child, and he was bereaved when he was a teenager, although the time for the funeral has passed, he still smiles without showing his teeth, so he is valued by his neighbors. And Tian Feng is erudite and talented, very famous in Jizhou, initially by the Taiwei Mansion to conquer, recommended as Maocai, and later was elected as the imperial history, because of resentment of the eunuchs in power, virtuous ministers were killed, so he abandoned the official and returned home. I heard that the state pastor also has the intention to recruit him, and the frustrated prince under the command of the state pastor is his close friend, so if the lord does not act quickly, I am afraid that he will miss him! ”

After hearing what Han Fei said, Liu Bei didn't dare to wait any longer. He instructed his men to summon the second and third generals to come here quickly. Then two orders were issued, one was to give Zhang Su an order for him to take people to the Liaodong Peninsula, which was bound to disrupt Liaodong. The other is for Xin Bi to let him bring his entourage to Liaodong to take office and lead the government affairs of Liaodong.

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't know what Liu Bei wanted to do with them, so they hurried to the Taishou Mansion. Liu Bei saw that the two of them were coming, so he ordered someone to prepare the horse quickly, and he pulled Han Fei out and left. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei were confused, and they didn't know what Liu Bei was going to do? But the eldest brother had an order that they must obey, so the group of four people followed by more than a dozen guards and embarked on a journey to Bohai County.

Liu Bei went to Bohai to recruit Tian Feng and didn't mention it for the time being, but said that Ding Feng and Gao Ran divided their troops again, and each of them ordered one to attack two cities, namely Hancheng and Danshui City. These two cities didn't know that Qianbei City had been captured, and they were still a little defenseless, and as a result, they were killed into the city by the two and captured these two cities in one fell swoop, so far they have only been in Liaodong for half a month.

After retaking the two more cities, they did not dare to fight forward, because their forces were to be dispersed, and there was really no extra need to attack. At this time, Liaodong Taishou Gongsun Du still knew the news of the fall of the three cities, so he was furious and led 20,000 troops to recapture the three cities!

Xinbi set foot on the land of Liaodong at this time, when he first arrived in Liaodong, Xinbi did not have time to rest and began to work intensively, one by one the decrees were issued, and the city of Qianbei was restored to its previous tranquility in just two days, and Xinbi rushed to the next city without stopping.

Gao Ran was actively preparing for war here, and he was very happy to hear that Xin Bi had come. "Brother George's greeting is late, I hope you are not strange! Hahaha! Outside the city of Seoul, Gao Ran laughed and stepped forward and grabbed Simbi's arm.

"General Gao is serious, what is the situation at the moment?" Simbi asked hurriedly.

"Go into the city and say, go into the city and talk about it. Brother George, I'm relieved that you're here! Gao Ran said as he let Simbi into the city gate.

After entering the castle guard's mansion, the two came to the lobby. Gao Ran waved his hand and all his men retreated. With a serious expression on his face, he said, "Brother George, the situation is not optimistic!" Gongsun Du dialect wants to personally lead an army of 20,000 to recapture the three cities, and now there are less than 2,000 defenders in the city, fortunately, there is a strong city to guard, but I don't have any bottom of what this battle is. ”

After hearing this, Xin Bi nodded and said: "This matter is indeed tricky, but it is not unsolvable, when I came, I heard that the lord has sent Zhang Su to lead people to Liaodong. As long as we can hold on until Zhang Su and his troops arrive, we will be able to usher in a turning point. ”

"George is serious about this, if that's the case, then don't worry too much! The only thing that can't be determined now is when that suspicion will reach Liaodong. Now that Gongsun Du has begun to assemble an army, I believe that he will be in the city in less than ten days. Gao Ran said to Simbi.

"General Gao doesn't have to worry, that suspicion should have set off at the same time as X, but X-so took the waterway! I believe that in another ten days, he will be able to feel Liaodong. However, the general still has to consolidate the city defense, so he has to fight with Gongsun Du. Simbi thought for a moment and said.

Gao Ran nodded again and again and said, "Then the affairs of this city will be entrusted to Brother George." ”

"There is an obligation. By the way, a certain person in Qianbei City understands that this Gongsun Du is a person who is wide outside and taboos to appoint cronies, compared to the big clans in Liaodong, he is also dissatisfied with his rule, if it is possible to win over one or two big clans, he is not afraid of Gongsun Du! ”

"Well, it does. This Liaodong is dominated by the Kim clan and the Park clan, both of which have shops in Seoul, but do you want me to send someone to take charge of them and invite you to do so? ”

"You don't have to wait for a night's rest and visit them tomorrow!"

"Eh, why should George go in person, this Jin family and the Park family are said to be big families, but they are far worse than the Xin family! As long as you hear that Brother George is coming, I am sure they will come to visit you! Gao Ran waved his hand and said.

"Well, then tomorrow will wait for the two of them in this city guard!"

"And that's how it should be, now that the business is over, it's time to pick up the dust for Brother George! Hahaha! After Gao Ran finished speaking, he shouted outside, and the banquet was set up in a short time. During the dinner, the two drank happily until they were both slightly drunk.

The next day, as Gao Ran said, the Kim family and the Park family heard that the Xin family's Xin Bi had arrived in Seoul, and the steward immediately reported to his master's family, and at the same time prepared a generous gift to ask for a meeting. Xin Bi met with the stewards of the two families in the side hall, during which they talked about something unknown to outsiders, and after the meeting, the stewards of the two families personally led people back to the family to report. And Xin Bi sat in the hall and muttered while drinking tea: "Liaodong is fixed! ”
